Baseball Contract Limits Tobacco Use
Baseball's new labor deal will limit the use of smokeless tobacco by players, but not ban it during games, as some public health groups had sought.
Players have agreed not to carry tobacco packages and tins in their back pockets when fans are permitted in the ballpark, or use tobacco during pregame or postgame interviews, and at team functions.
But the restrictions fall short of the call by some advocates, including members of Congress, who argued that a ban on chewing tobacco and dip during games was needed to protect impressionable kids watching on TV.
"Our members understand that this is a dangerous product, there are serious risks associated with using it," union head Michael Weiner told The Associated Press. "Our players felt strongly that those were appropriate measures to take but that banning its use on the field was not appropriate under the circumstances."
The players union also has agreed to join forces with the Partnership at DrugFree.org and the baseball commissioner's office to create a nationwide public service announcement campaign. Several players have agreed to do public outreach, including Curtis Granderson, Jeremy Guthrie and C.J. Wilson. In addition, the union will start a Tobacco Cessation Center for its players, and players will be offered training on how to give up the habit.
Matthew L. Myers, president of the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, one of the groups that led the anti-tobacco push, said that while he would have preferred a ban at games and on camera, the restrictions represent real progress.
"The new Major League Baseball contract takes an historic first step toward getting smokeless tobacco out of the ballgame, and makes significant progress toward protecting the health of big-league players and millions of young fans who look up to them," he said in a statement.
"Baseball players have been using tobacco since the earliest days of the game. This forward step marks the first time ever that the league and the players have recognized that it is time to break this unhealthy connection."
Four U.S. senators who had urged the union to adopt a ban on the eve of this year's World Series had a similar take.
"Major League Baseball made the right decision today in choosing to implement stricter rules for smokeless tobacco on the field and off the field," said Dick Durbin of Illinois, the No. 2 Democrat in the Senate, and fellow Democrats Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey, Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut and Senate Health Committee Chairman Tom Harkin of Iowa. "This is a welcome acknowledgement by players and owners that tobacco use of any kind is no longer a tradition that should be upheld."

End notes: John Singer Sargent's portraits at the MET
"Scintillating…addictive" applauded The Guardian; "outstanding…one of the best I've ever seen," acclaimed The Telegraph; "mesmerising" said The Spectator. All were describing the exhibition Sargent: Portraits of Artists and Friends at London's National Portrait Gallery earlier this year. But for anyone in New York this summer, it gets even better. An expanded version of the show of John Singer Sargent's portraits of the influential and colorful characters from the worlds of art, literature, music, and theater who were his friends—Claude Monet, Auguste Rodin, Robert Louis Stevenson, Henry James, and Ellen Terry, to name a few—is on view at the Metropolitan Museum of Art until October 4. We asked Elizabeth Kornhauser, Alice Pratt Brown Curator of American Paintings and Sculpture, and Stephanie Herdrich, assistant research curator, who organized the installation here, to

When it opened last fall on Newport's swank Bellevue Avenue, the Audrain Automobile Museum was immediately up to speed (metaphors drawn from car culture are inexcusable but somehow inevitable with the Audrain), exhibiting a small but head-turning group of rare pre-World War II luxury cars, such as a fire-engine red 1930 Pierce-Arrow Convertible with a custom fitted compartment for your golf bag, and a 1931 Lincoln Model K convertible in a beautiful, and shall we say enviable, pea green.

One sign of an important exhibition may be its ability to move us into unfamiliar territory. By that measure, as by others, the recent show at the American Folk Art Museum, When the Curtain Never Comes Down, has claimed our attention. Its twenty-seven self-taught/outsider artists are represented by both permanent works— assemblages, garments, instruments, drawings, and the like—but more significantly by their actions in movement, song, and other forms of evanescent self-display. In the current art climate it is a relief to encounter art that for the most part cannot be bought or sold. But surely we are drawn to these evangelists of the self for other, deeper reasons

Among the contents of the Allen Ginsberg Papers in Stanford University's Green Library is a pair of worn and dirty tennis shoes. In the thousand linear feet of correspondence, photographs, manuscripts and notes, reel-to-reel recordings, performance posters, and broadsides, the beat-up sneakers hold their own. Purchased during his 1965 visit to Czechoslovakia, it is reasonable to surmise that Ginsberg wore the nondescript white canvas shoes to march in Prague's May Day parade, to address a throng of students in the city square, and to cross the tarmac to an outbound plane when he was expelled from the Communist country a few days later

Hong Kong (PRWEB) June 24, 2013
Last week, Singapore recorded all-time high Pollutant Standard Index levels and as a result, the Pacific Prime Singapore office has noticed a significant number of clients escaping to neighboring Malaysia and even Hong Kong, a city that is hardly renowned for its fresh air.
The Pollutant Standards Index (PSI) was developed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and measures air-quality standards. Readings that fall between 51-100 on the scale indicate 'moderate' air quality conditions, 101-200 refers to 'unhealthy' and 201-300 indicate 'very unhealthy' levels.
Readings in Singapore surpassed these figures completely last week and by Thursday afternoon, a reading of 371 was recorded which, according to the scale, indicates 'hazardous' conditions. Shockingly, PSI levels continued to rise and on Friday the 21st, BBC news reported that the PSI had reached 401.
Air pollution and haze in Singapore, as well as Malaysia, is typically poor this time of year due to the burning of illegal fires to clear land for farming in Sumatra, Indonesia. This year however, Singapore went from breaking its worst PSI record in 16 years to recording the country's worst-ever conditions. Although Malaysia has not been as badly affected, around 300 schools have now been closed in the southern regions.
Singaporean residents are certainly feeling the effects and many businesses have appeared to have ground to a halt as employees do not want to risk stepping outside of their homes. Other residents are choosing to leave the country completely and buses to

Heidi Klum & Mel B Take Over 'AGT' Barbecue In NYC
Heidi Klum & Mel B Take Over 'AGT' Barbecue In NYC
Watch as Heidi Klum and her fellow "America's Got Talent" judge Mel B patriotically play it up for the cameras at the "AGT" Barbecue and Viewing Party at Rockefeller Plaza in New York City.
Hingum funnyduster. Nick was where he should be but not wearing his wedding ring and was a no show for the barbecue, but judge Heidi Klum was there. Her Emmy dress still has us impressed. Thank you to zac Posen. He's a good guy, a great designer. Heidi's still on fashion high after topping many a best dressed list for her red emmys gown. She said that bringing Posen along was a just reward. He picked me up at the hotel. We drove in the limo together to the red carpet. That was fun doing that with him. Most of the time I'm on the red carpet by myself. From posing with Posen to posing in animal print, we were there as Heidi and Mel B. Played it up for the cameras at the agt barbecue in New York. There's a big kid inside all of us. Case in point, Heidi challenging Howie Mandel to a game of jenga. I think I won.

This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/878,674 filed on Jun. 11, 2002. The disclosure of the above application is incorporated herein by reference.
The present invention relates generally to communication systems on board mobile platforms such as aircraft and, more particularly, to an on-board wireless local area network (WLAN) accessible by passengers' portable electronic devices such as laptop computers.
Mobile network systems have traditionally been limited in bandwidth and link capacity, making it prohibitively expensive and/or unacceptably slow to distribute broadband data and video services to all passengers on a mobile platform such as an aircraft, boat or train. There is great interest in making such services available to users on mobile platforms. A system for supplying television and data services to mobile platforms is described in co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/639,912, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein.
The system described in application Ser. No. 09/639,912 provides bi-directional data transfer via satellite communications link between a ground-based control segment and a mobile RF transceiver system carried on each mobile platform. Each user on each mobile platform is able to interface with an on-board server by using a laptop, personal digital assistant (PDA) seat-back-mounted computer/display or other computing device. Each user can independently request and obtain Internet access, company intranet access, stored video and audio programming and live television programming.
It would be desirable to provide passengers with wireless connections to network services available on mobile platforms such as aircraft. There are concerns, however, about the possibility of interference to aircraft systems from portable electronic devices (PEDs) that might be used by passengers to make wireless connections to an on-board network. Of particular concern is the possibility of PED interference during critical phases of flight, for example, during takeoff and landing. There also are concerns that such networks might expose passengers and flight crews to radiated RF fields exceeding recommended health and safety limits for RF exposure.
Generally there are two types of PEDs: (1) intentional transmitters, which must transmit a signal in order to accomplish their function (e.g. cell phones, two-way radios, pagers and remote-control devices), and (2) non-intentional transmitters, which do not need to transmit a signal to accomplish their function, but nevertheless emit some level of radiation (e.g. laptop computers, compact disk players, tape recorders and electronic hand-held games). The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has not issued certification regulations for PEDs. The FAA does, however, restrict the use of PEDs on commercial airlines. FAA advisory circular AC91.21-1 paragraph 6.a (7) states that, unless otherwise authorized, use of PEDs classified as intentional transmitters should be prohibited during aircraft operation. General Operating and Flight Rules, 14 CFR 91.21(b)(5) ("Portable Electronic Devices") prohibits the operation of a PED on an aircraft, unless the aircraft operator has determined that the device will not cause interference with the navigation or communication systems on board the aircraft. Thus it is desirable to provide a wireless network that can be determined to be accessible by passenger-operated PEDs without causing such interference and thus could be authorized for on-board use. It also is desirable to provide an on-board wireless network that produces RF emission levels within recommended health and safety limits.
In one preferred form, the present invention provides a wireless local area network adapted for use by users traveling on a mobile platform such as an aircraft. The network includes a network server located on the mobile platform, and at least one network access point connected to the server and accessible wirelessly by at least one user portable electronic device over one of a plurality of non-overlapping network frequency channels. This wireless local area network can provide two-way communication, data and entertainment for aircraft passengers, cabin crews and flight crews. Such information may be obtained via e-mail, internet, company intranet access, and/or from data stored on board or off board the aircraft. The RF characteristics of this wireless network are specifically tailored to meet applicable standards for electromagnetic compatibility with aircraft systems and RF exposure levels for passengers and flight crews.
Further areas of applicability of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed description provided hereinafter. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the preferred embodiment of the invention, are intended for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
The present invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description and the accompanying drawings, wherein:
The following description of the preferred embodiments is merely exemplary in nature and is in no way intended to limit the invention, its application, or uses. As described below, the present invention in one embodiment is directed to a wireless LAN ("WLAN") for use in a mobile platform. The mobile platform could include an aircraft, cruise ship or any other mobile vehicle. Thus the reference to the mobile platform as an aircraft throughout the following description should not be construed as limiting the applicability of the WLAN 10 and/or the present invention to only aircraft.
A preferred embodiment of a wireless LAN for use in a mobile platform such as an aircraft is indicated generally by the reference numeral 10 in
Each access point 18 has an antenna 34 located, for example, in the passenger cabin overhead. Each access point 18 is configured to transmit RF signals to, and receive RF signals from, one or more PEDs 38 carried on board by passengers. Such PEDs are fabricated for wireless use or have a wireless adapter antenna (not shown) and can include laptops, PDAs or the like. The access point antenna 34 may be, for example, an omni-directional or patch antenna. The number and location of access points 18, and the number of PEDs 38 associated with an access point 18, can vary as further described below.
An exemplary arrangement of access point antennas 34 relative to PEDs 38 is shown in
The WLAN 10 operates in the 2.40 to 2.483 GHz ISM band, which is designated for unlicensed commercial or public use. Other licensed or unlicensed bands above 2.4 GHz, for example, the ISM 5.725 to 5.875 GHz band, could also be used. The WLAN 10 is configured in conformance with the IEEE 802.11b (High Rate) standard. The invention is not so limited, and other bands, standards, and protocols can be used. Each access point 18 communicates with the server 14 through the Ethernet switch 22 at full available bandwidth. The WLAN 10 utilizes Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) transmission between each access point 18 and its associated user PEDs 38. That is, the spectrum is divided into three non-overlapping frequency channels of approximately 22 MHz each. It is contemplated that other spread-spectrum modulation methods also could be used.
Each access point 18 is configured to communicate with PEDs 38 over one of the three channels. For example, as shown in
Where the number of access points 18 exceeds three, each channel can be re-assigned to another access point 18 that is not adjacent to an access point to which the channel is already assigned. For example, seven access points 18 located sequentially along the aircraft aisle overhead could use channels 1, 6, 11, 1, 6, 11 and 1 respectively. Thus use of each of the three channels can be distributed spatially over the aggregate of cells 80, for example, to users distributed over the entire passenger cabin. Of course, the channels can be distributed over a plurality of cells in many different ways. Additionally, a connected user PED 38 can roam, e.g. as supported by the IEEE 802.11b protocol. That is, a WLAN 10 connection established with a user PED 38 in one cell 80 over one channel can be maintained over another channel if the user PED 38 roams to other cells. For example, a user carrying a PED 38 can walk, from one cell 80 in which the PED is connected to the WLAN 10 via channel 1, into an adjacent cell 80 in which, for example, channel 6 is being used, and maintain the connection to the WLAN 10.
Communication between the PEDs 38 and the access points 18 is half-duplex. That is, in each frequency channel, at any one time either the access point 18 or one user PED 38 can transmit. PEDs communicate via CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance). That is, a PED 38 checks for a quiet channel before transmitting to its associated access point 18. If the channel is busy, the PED waits a random amount of time and then retransmits. Several PEDs 38 could transmit simultaneously when contending for channel use. If a collision of their signals is detected, each of the transmitting PEDs "backs of" and waits a random time period before retransmitting. Eventually one PED gains control of the channel and transmits.
The WLAN 10 is configured such that only access points 18 and PEDs 38 that meet applicable interference, health and safety requirements are allowed to operate within the network. PEDs that do not comply with such standards are excluded from connecting to the WLAN 10. More specifically, and for example, according to IEEE 802.11b protocol, each type of PED 38 that has passed testing for compliance with applicable interference, health and safety standards is identified in the MAC (Media Access Control) layer of the WLAN 10. Thus it can be determined at each access point 18 whether a remote PED 38 has been predetermined to be suitable for connection to the WLAN 10. If the PED is one that has been approved for connection, it is allowed to connect to the network; if not, the PED request for network access is ignored.
Configuring a WLAN for use in aircraft entails consideration of a variety of factors, including those related, for example, to aircraft and passenger safety. Not all of such factors, however, are unique to aircraft. Thus many of the considerations for configuring an aircraft WLAN also pertain to configuring a WLAN for use in other types of mobile platforms. Embodiments of a mobile WLAN as described above can be configured in accordance with the following assumptions, determinations and considerations.
Distance Assumptions and Far Field Calculations
Emissions by 802.11b wireless LANs can be treated as a far field problem. The wavelength, λ, at 2.4 GHz is 0.125 meters. The far field limit is approximated by 2*d2/λ where "d" is the largest dimension of the transmitting antenna. For a typical omni-directional or patch antenna utilized at a wireless access point mounted, for example, in the overhead in an aircraft passenger cabin, the largest dimension is assumed to be approximately 9 inches or 0.23 meters. The far field limit for such an antenna 34, then, is approximately 0.85 meters.
A typical user PED 38 PCMCIA adapter antenna is assumed to have a largest dimension of 2 inches or 0.05 meters. The far field limit for such an antenna, then, is approximately 0.04 meters. Based on the foregoing assumptions and determinations, all WLAN 10 emissions more than one meter from an access point antenna 34 or more than four centimeters from a user PED 38 antenna can be treated as being in the far field.
Non-coaxial aircraft system cables can be lossy at the frequencies contemplated for use in the airborne WLAN 10. Therefore, possible effects of WLAN-radiated field levels at line replaceable units (LRUs) of an aircraft system are considered. An access point antenna 34 transmitting to users in an aircraft passenger compartment would be prevented by its ground plane (not shown) from radiating at significant levels into the overhead compartment. Access point antenna 34 emissions, then, are investigated primarily for their effect on equipment in avionics bays under the floor or in the sidewalls of the aircraft. The user PED 38 antennas could radiate into both the overhead and underfloor areas of the aircraft. System LRUs can be installed in equipment bays and/or in the overhead throughout the aircraft. Therefore the minimum distance from an operating access point antenna 34 or a user PED 38 adapter to an airborne system LRU is assumed to be one meter.
Field Strength Levels
The following methodology is used to evaluate field strength levels for both aircraft system RF susceptibility and for RF exposure compliance. For the following analysis of field strength levels, it is assumed that a transmit antenna on either an access point or user adapter has a maximum gain value of 2.2 dBi (numerical value 1.66), and that transmit cable losses are zero dB. The far field radiated power density is given by:
P d=(P t *G)/(4*π*D 2) (1)
where "Pt" is transmitter power at antenna input in watts, "G" is numerical gain of the transmit antenna relative to an isotropic source, and "D" is distance from center of transmit antenna to measuring point in meters.
The E-field in free space is given by:
E(v/m)=SQRT(P d*377), or (2)
E(dBuv/m)=20 LOG10(E*106) (3)
where "E"
Where "E" is the E-field strength in volts per meter and "dBuv/m" is field strength in dB above 1 microvolt per meter. Referring to
Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) Levels
A 802.11b network operates in the 2.4 to 2.483 GHz ISM band. The IEEE C.95.1-1999 standard for human exposure to RF electromagnetic fields specifies a maximum permissible whole body exposure (MPE) level for this frequency region in an uncontrolled environment of f/1500 mw/cm2 averaged over 30 minutes, where f is frequency expressed in MHz. The worst case or minimum value is at the lower end of the frequency band where MPE=2400/1500=1.6 mw/cm2 or 16 w/m2. The FCC requirement as specified in OET Bulletin 65 for this frequency range is 1.0 mw/cm2 or 10 w/m2 averaged over 30 minutes. Although the European CENELEC ES59005 maximum allowable RF exposure levels are less stringent than the FCC limits, the more conservative FCC requirements for compliance are used herein.
Maximum 802.11b Radiated Field Strengths
It is assumed that over any 30-minute interval the separation distance from an individual to an access point antenna 34 in the overhead is 1.0 meters. Table 1 below describes 2.4 GHz WLAN radiated emissions at transmit powers from 1 to 100 milliwatts and at a transmitter-to-victim distance of 1 meter.

Referring to Table 1, test data indicate that an 802.11b system radiating at 3 mw maximum output power will generate a radiated power density of 4×10-4 w/m2 at the distance of 1 meter from the access point antenna 34. This power density is 4.0×10-5 times the maximum allowed FCC level, which is equal to a margin of 44 dB.
It is possible for tall individuals to be within 0.25 meters of an overhead access point antenna 34 in a single-aisle aircraft or for a user to be within 0.05 meters of his/her PED 38 antenna. Table 2 below describes 2.4 GHz WLAN radiated emissions at transmit powers from 1 to 100 milliwatts and at a transmitter-to-victim distance of 0.05 meter.

Referring to Tables 2 and 3, test data indicate that an 802.11b system radiating at 3 mw maximum output power will generate a radiated power density of 6.3×10-3 w/m2 at the worst-case minimum distance of 0.25 meters from the access point antenna 34 and 1.6×10-1 w/m2 at the worst-case minimum distance of 0.05 meters from the user PED 38 antenna. For the access point antenna 34, this power density is 6.3×10-4 of the maximum allowed FCC level, which is equal to a margin of 32 dB. For the user PED 38 antenna, this is 1.6×10-2 of the maximum allowed FCC level, which is equal to a margin of 18 dB.
Contribution from Multiple WLAN Sources
The contribution of multiple WLAN RF emission sources simultaneously transmitting is addressed next. Referring to
A layout of a plurality of PEDs 38 in adjacent seats 84 is shown in
Radiated Cell Dimensions
Cell size is determined based on the contemplated power level for the WLAN, the aggregate bandwidth contemplated to be available, and the number of users contemplated to share the bandwidth. For example, in the embodiment shown in
Received Signal Strength
Table 4 below describes 2.4 GHz WLAN radiated emissions at transmit powers from 1 to 100 milliwatts and at a transmitter-to-victim distance of 3 meters. Assuming a maximum distance of 3 meters between an access point and its cell boundary, as shown in Table 4, a user PED 38 at the maximum distance from an access point antenna 34 broadcasting at 1 milliwatt receives a signal in the range of −45 to −50 dBm. This signal exceeds the 802.11b-specified value of −76 dBm required to support 11 Mbps communication. Such margin protects against signal fading due to mulltipath within the aircraft cabin.

RF Susceptibility Test Levels For Aircraft Equipment
Aircraft systems have been qualified to varying RF susceptibility test levels and frequency ranges. Those systems that have been determined to be flight-critical and essential are required to demonstrate immunity to the effects of High Intensity Radiated Fields (HIRF) and have been tested to field strengths that are many orders of magnitude above the RF field strength generated by an 802.11b WLAN system. Other systems qualified to levels below the HIRF levels also have demonstrated RF immunity in the 2.4 to 2.483 GHz frequency range. For any aircraft system for which there is no radiated susceptibility test data in the 802.11b operating band of 2.4 to 2.483 GHz, it is proposed that aircraft level susceptibility testing be performed to demonstrate that there will be no interference from the worst case operation of an 802.11b wireless LAN configured in accordance with the embodiments described herein.
The above-described WLAN 10 includes multiple intentional RF transmitters that operate at very low levels of RF field strength. These low levels provide significant margins of compliance for both electromagnetic interference and RF exposure limit regulations for operators, airframe manufacturers, and the traveling public. This makes it possible to safely operate the above-described WLAN 10 on board commercial aircraft in flight.
The description of the invention is merely exemplary in nature and, thus, variations that do not depart from the gist of the invention are intended to be within the scope of the invention. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope of the invention.

Quinta Santos is an impressive villa on a private estate with huge landscaped gardens and fully-equipped accommodation for 14 people. Large parties of friends can enjoy its great range of ...
Quinta Santos is located on its own private fenced estate, set in a semi-rural area dotted with white-washed villas and fruit groves.
Meia Praia is a beautiful 9.5km stretch of fine, white sand that runs along Lagos Bay. Just 3km away, this beach is ideal for long walks with your toes on the waves' edge and has plenty of room to build a sandcastle kingdom. As well as snackbars/restaurants where you can enjoy a cooling drink or ice cream, there are a variety of water sports on offer; from para-gliding to windsurfing, sailing and surfing.
The nearby Palmares golf has a par 71 course designed by the prolific Frank Pennink, approx 7km away. Penina Golf, in Alvor has three courses; an 18-hole championship course, and two 9-hole loops, approx 5km away.
The historic maritime city of Lagos is approximately 15km away. This relaxed and charming city offers a great selection of restaurants; the biggest concentration of which is found in the pedestrianised streets. Lined with open-air cafes, the main square of Praia da Republica is the best place to indulge in a cool drink and a spot of people watching. There are often lots of street entertainers as well; everything from magicians to clowns and living statues. Proud of its history, Lagos played an important part in the Age of Discovery and Henry the Navigator had his ships built here. It was also home to some of the earliest slave markets. Its rich, long history ensures that there are plenty of buildings and historic sites worth visiting; the governor's castle and the church of St Sebastian being two of them.
For those with kids (or who are just big kids), good attractions nearby include...
. Lagos Zoo: set in lovely landscaped gardens with exotic plants, this zoo contains 250 different animals and offers the chance to get close to a variety of species. There is an educational farm, souvenir shop and restaurant. Located between Sao Joao and Bensafrim, about 10km away.
. Slide and Splash: one of Europe's biggest water parks that aims to keep you busy for a whole day with is range of plunging and gentle slides, swimming pools and a lazy rubber ring river. Approx 25km away near Lagoa. Ground Floor:The spacious and sprawling ground floor features four bedrooms, four bathrooms, two kitchens and two sitting rooms. The large main living room is light and bright, with patio doors opening onto the sunny gardens. This room has a large snooker table in the centre, satellite TV, sofa and armchairs. To one side is an open-plan kitchen with a breakfast bar and barstools. Well-equipped, this kitchen provides an alternative cooking space to the main kitchen - a good set-up for large parties of friends.
A door leads from this living room to another sitting/dining room with two sets of patio doors opening out on to the garden terraces. Along one wall is an attractive fireplace with wood-burner and two cosy sofas. There is also a coffee table and satellite TV. On the other side is a dining table and six chairs, beside a large side dresser.
A doorway opens to the large fitted kitchen, which has a modern country-style with pale green units, stainless steel accessories and fresh white worktop. This well-equipped kitchen includes a dishwasher, oven with ceramic hob, free-standing fridge/freezer and microwave. There is also a small breakfast dining area with a table and four chairs.
Every downstairs bedroom has a set of patio doors opening directly to the sunny gardens. The first double bedroom has a blue metal bedstead, bedside cabinets with small reading lamps and a large built-in wardrobe. It also has a door opening to a tiled en-suite shower room. The second has a large double bed with padded headboard, two large bedside cabinets, an armchair, wardrobe and door opening to an en-suite shower room.
There are two rooms furnished with twin beds. The first is decorated in sunny orange and yellow with a small bedside table, dressing table and chair beneath a wall mirror and large built-in wardrobes. A door opens to an en-suite bathroom. The second twin bedroom has a bedside cabinet, and a large wardrobe with a central mirror. Adjacent is a tiled shower room with shower cubicle, toilet and washbasin.First Floor:The master double bedroom is set in a spacious attic space with gently sloping roofs. Simple and colourful this room is fitted with a double bed, bedside cabinets, built-in wardrobes and a door opening to an attractive monochrome en-suite bathroom. The black tiled shower area contrasts with the white walls and suite, which includes a large corner bath with Jacuzzi jets and over-bath shower. There is also a toilet, washbasin and heated towel rail.
There are two further attractive bedrooms, both fitted with twin beds and en-suite shower rooms. Both have access to private balconies with great views, one having steps down to the garden.
The attic games room is set beneath a sloping roof with a large skylight window. There's plenty to keep you amused, including a darts board, table-tennis table, table football, a satellite TV, wireless internet access and the old-fashioned fun of a selection of board games.Outside:The estate surrounding Quinta Santos is largely laid to lawn, interspersed with pathways and the shade of tall spiky palms. The private roman-ended pool is set into a paved sun terrace, with plenty of room to stretch out on a sunlounger and soak up the sun. The large pool has integral steps to lead you gradually into the water and there is also a poolside shower - which doubles as a handy 'rinsing off' point when you return from the beach.
If you get tired of lazing in the warm sunshine, why not enjoy a friendly game of badminton in the sand-covered badminton court. And for kids there is a large swing-set.
Another source of fun in the garden is the gyroball; a human-sized version of a swingball.
Along the side of the house are shaded terraces where garden tables and chairs invite you to sit and enjoy a long, lazy lunch. Set away from the villa is another dining area with a patio and large built-in barbecue; an ideal place for cooking up a storm in the later, cooler sunshine. Satellite TV

Heaven is staging a series of 24-hour stoppages after new arrival Bob Crow balloted angels over terms and conditions.
Baz Hassan, 37, owner of the Bearwood Booze off licence in Smethwick, has said he will not stop selling dangerous amounts of alcohol to atheists, agnostics and Christians, despite calls from leaders of the drinking community to respect cultural weaknesses of these vulnerable groups.
Although a non-drinker and vegetarian himself, Mr Hassan says he will continue to exploit unbelievers with heavily-promoted multibuy offers on strong lager, cheap vodka, sausage rolls and smoky bacon crisps. He certainly has no time for fellow Muslims who refuse to sell such products at all, who he accuses of exhibiting dangerous liberal tendencies.
Britain's Pagan and Neo-Druidic communities have issued a joint statement finally apologising for the 'unspeakable suffering and inconvenience' caused by the building of Stonehenge in the second and third centuries BC.
Levels of papal interference in international affairs is set to rise this week, with the unveiling in the Vatican of a bigger, more-eye catching papal oar, shortly to be stuck into the global argument about the Middle East.
After surprising the world with his relaxed views on homosexuality, Pope Francis has stepped-up his attempts to modernise the Catholic Church by enlisting the services of style guru Gok Wan in a bid to 'makeover' the Church's hierarchy.

TUESDAY, May 17 (HealthDay News) -- Modern technology reveals that ancient Egyptians, including a princess of noble blood, suffered from coronary artery disease, according to a new report.
The Horus study, which used whole-body computerized tomography (CT) scanning to visualize the arteries of 52 ancient Egyptian mummies, found that atherosclerosis -- plaque build-up in the arteries -- was common among a group of middle-age and older ancient Egyptians.
"Overall, it was striking how much atherosclerosis we found," Dr. Gregory S. Thomas, director of nuclear cardiology education at the University of California, Irvine, and co-principal investigator of the study, said in a news release from the European Society of Cardiology.
"We think of atherosclerosis as a disease of modern lifestyle, but it's clear that it also existed 3,500 years ago," he said. "Our findings certainly call into question the perception of atherosclerosis as a modern disease."
The study, slated for presentation Tuesday at the International Conference of Non-Invasive Cardiovascular Imaging, in Amsterdam, found that recognizable arteries were present in 44 of the 52 mummies scanned. Arterial calcification, a marker of atherosclerosis, was also evident in almost half of the mummies scanned.
Atherosclerosis in the coronary arteries was evident in three of the mummies investigated, including Princess Ahmose-Meryet-Amon, a noble who lived in Thebes (Luxor) between 1580 and 1550 B.C.
"Today, she would have needed bypass surgery," Thomas said.
The princess, who died in her 40s, probably would have eaten a diet rich in vegetables and fruit and with limited servings of meat. The researchers also noted that wheat and barley were dietary staples during this period of ancient Egypt and that tobacco and trans-fats were still unknown.
Considering the relatively healthy and active lifestyle in ancient Egypt, Thomas and his co-principa

GO VOLS. some of the best fans and traditions in the country. you'll get chills watching the team run through the Power T.
Being a student at UT is amazing. Sports brings the entire campus together. While Tennessee football hasn't done that well in the past, things are looking up with Butch Jones as head coach. He is amazing! The traditions that occur during football season and every Saturday in the fall bring or 100,000 people to cheer on our Vols! The Pride of the Southland Marching Band is the backbone to the bleeding orange spirit that is tangible every football Saturday. The band gets the crowd pumped for the Vol Walk and for March to the Stadium. It is a crazy time. My favorite time of year!
Go Vols! Butch is taking us to the top! Brick By Brick!
I love some Vols football!
UTK is known for its football team, and the student facilities are great too
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
If you hail from Tennessee, you may be aware of the Vol craze, but you have only heard and seen a small part of what UT athletics is about. If you are from out-of-state, even in an area with a collegiate football team, you will still be surprised by how seriously the Volunteers take football. Even if you are not a huge sports fan, you will enjoy the excitement and tradition that goes along with a football game. It is only fair to warn you that if you dislike sports, you may want to vacate Knoxville in the event of a football game. You will probably have to go pretty far away, though.
IM sports are popular to both play in and watch. There are great chances to play sports, whether it is something you participated in during high school, you want to make friends, or have always wanted to learn. Some sports, such as flag football, are rather competitive. If you played high school varsity sports locally, chances are you might play with or against former high school rivals. A lot of teams go all out, planning practices and purchasing uniforms. In many IM sports, the playoffs draw a pretty big crowd, so you may have an audience when you score or when you drop the ball.

About this Business
From Our Editors
Owned by Dirk and Terry Fucik, they together combine 40 years of fishery experience with a shared passion for educating people on sustainable seafare, Dirk's Fish casts its nets daily to lure in responsibly harvested seafood from around the world. Each new arrival carries at least 40 varieties of maritime eats, which are cleaned, prepped, and cut daily. The wide array of oceanic victuals includes sushi, farm-raised salmon, oysters from both coasts, and seasonal king crab hailing from Dutch Harbor, Alaska. In addition to fish, a rotating selection of ready-to-eat appetizers, salads, soups, and entrees adds an aquatic bent to meals, which can be eaten at Dirk's small dining tables or taken to go.
